Specifically, I made the point that Personal Learning Networks (PLNs) are enabled and strengthened when we make connections through social media tools. the use of social technology is much less determined by the tool itself; when we use a network, the most import asset we get is access to one another.

As I argued in a previous post , learning must be differentiated, because one size does not fit all, and standardised curricula and testing are not fit for purpose in the 21st Century. Personal learning is unique to each learner. Secondly, learning needs to be social. Thirdly, learning needs to be globalised.

They have the tools, they own the technology, and they have the confidence to use them, not only informally, but increasingly in formal learning contexts. Teachers won''t be redundant in the new technology rich learning economy, but they will need to adapt as conditions change, becoming guides and mentors rather than instructors.
